Meanwhile, the Delhi Traffic Police is bracing for the coming winter months and the subsequent worsening pollution levels, the vehicular emission being one of the key factors.

As Delhi environment minister Manjinder Singh Sirsa on Sunday held a virtual meeting with traffic police officials from neighbouring NCR districts to review preparations for the coming months, the Delhi Traffic Police informed the meeting that more than 10,000 challans for traffic and pollution violations are being issued daily. Officials also discussed action against overage petrol and diesel vehicles and the diversion of trucks not bound for Delhi through the Eastern and Western Peripheral Expressways.
